Become a Pace Girl
Reach Program
Our Reach therapists bring support directly to girls, ages 11-17, meeting them in their local schools, within their communities, or even at home. This flexible, personalized approach ensures that girls have access to the mental health support they need, in the places where they feel most comfortable and empowered.
Pace’s Reach Program is designed to meet girls where they are, offering flexible, community-based mental health support tailored to their unique experiences. By providing a safe and accessible environment, our qualified therapists help each girl build resilience, develop coping skills, and grow in self-confidence. Our approach is rooted in understanding the challenges young women face and empowering them with tools for emotional and mental well-being.
Our Reach Program ensures that all services are available at no cost to families, removing financial barriers so every girl can access the support she deserves. We believe that mental health and personal growth should be accessible to everyone.
Therapy sessions are held in places familiar and comfortable to each girl—her school, community, or home. We bring support directly to her, wherever she feels most at ease.
We understand the importance of accessibility, so our therapists offer flexible scheduling to fit each girl’s unique needs and daily routines.
Our team of therapists is trained to provide compassionate, expert care, helping girls build resilience, develop coping skills, and reach their fullest potential.

Our therapists can meet girls in a variety of convenient locations, including their schools, community centers, after school activities, or even at home. We work with families to find the location that feels safest and most comfortable for each girl. Contact your local Pace program to find more information about service delivery.
Typically, sessions occur weekly. The frequency of sessions can be flexible and tailored to each girl’s unique needs. Therapists work with families to develop a schedule that best supports the girl’s goals and fits into her daily life.
We strongly value family engagement. Parents and guardians are encouraged to be actively involved in their girl’s progress. As part of our commitment to holistic support, the Reach Program offers family sessions when appropriate. We believe that involving family members can strengthen a girl’s support network and reinforce the skills she’s building.
The length of participation varies depending on each girl’s needs and goals. Therapists work with girls and their families to create a personalized timeline that supports sustained growth and development.
Girl-Centered
We place each girl’s voice, needs, and aspirations at the heart of our work, ensuring our programs support her personal, academic, and emotional development.
Strength-Based
We focus on each girl’s unique strengths and potential, empowering her to overcome challenges and achieve her goals by building on what she does well.
Understanding Trauma
Our approach recognizes the impact of trauma and prioritizes creating a safe, supportive environment that fosters healing, resilience, and growth.
